Scholars in the courtyard

The next day, Yang Xiaotao took Ran Qiuye to the post office by bicycle to deliver the letter, and then rode to the library.

The two came to the library and naturally met the administrator Lao Gu.

Yang Xiaotao later learned about the thesis from Gao Yufeng, and it was Lao Gu who discovered it in advance.

"They come in and out in pairs, I'm envious!"

Lao Gu held the thermos cup and looked at Yang Xiaotao and said jokingly.

The two were familiar with each other, and Yang Xiaotao asked Ran Qiuye to go first while he chatted on the side.

"You kid, you are so dishonest that you won't invite us to a wedding banquet even if we get married. It seems that the relationship between us is not strong enough!"

As Lao Gu continued to joke, Yang Xiaotao took out a box of Qunying from his pocket and stuffed it directly into Lao Gu's hand.

"Look what you said, this is not made up for!"

"Hey! Then feel happy!"

Lao Gu took out cigarettes but only took out one and put it in his pocket, and pushed the rest to Yang Xiaotao!

Yang Xiaotao was not polite, put away his cigarette, and went to look for Ran Qiuye. The two of them found a few books and read them in the library.

The two of them finished eating in the library at noon, read some more in the afternoon, borrowed seven or eight books, and went home.

On the way, Ran Qiuye held the book and was worried.

Yang Xiaotao was curious and asked.

It turns out that it is still a matter of school teachers. This classroom is easy to manage, but teachers are hard to find.

The old principal promised to keep an eye on him last time, but there is still no news yet, so we know how difficult it is to be a teacher in the countryside.

Not everyone can be like Ran Qiuye. More people need to support their families and need to consider practical considerations.

"Don't be anxious about this. There will be a road for the car to reach the mountain, and it will be straight for the boat to the bridge!"

"I know, but just looking at so many children..."

"Don't worry, there will be a solution!"

As the two talked, they returned home, put the books on the bookshelf, and Ran Qiuye began to prepare meals.

On Monday, Yang Xiaotao got up and went to work, while Ran Qiuye rested at home.

However, when he went out, someone from the courtyard came to visit Ran Qiuye at home.

Arriving at the factory, Yang Xiaotao put the car away and walked to the third workshop.

Regarding the heating stove, we need to finalize the plan as soon as possible. It is best to install it in the school before winter. By the way, we can start the project in Sijiu City to let more people know the benefits of the heating stove.

When they arrived at the third workshop, Wang Fa and others rushed over.

Among them, Liu Guogang, who helped last time, is also there.

When Liu Guogang came to work in the factory today, he was called by Wang Fa and told Yang Xiaotao what he was thinking.

Liu Guogang was immediately interested when he heard it. Let's not talk about whether the heater was good or not. Just this earning-making job suited his appetite.

Their family has a large population. As an elder brother, he not only has to take good care of his younger brothers and sisters, but also raises his wife and children. Who doesn't want to live a comfortable life for a few days?

Even though he earns a lot of salary as a fifth-level blacksmith, when it is divided among the family members, there is only a few left every month. If money is urgently needed, help from a villain is needed.

Now that he has such an opportunity, he is willing to work overtime.

What's more, the leader this time is Yang Xiaotao, who is a magical figure in the third workshop.

This guy who can read foreign books also made corn cobs with many kernels, and even the elderly praised him, he is so awesome!

In terms of prestige in these three workshops, if Yang Xiaotao raised his arms and shouted, even the director would rush forward.

"Brother Wang, Brother Liu!"

Yang Xiaotao came and greeted several people.

Liu Guogang was a little reserved, and the tall and strong man was a little reserved, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the crowd. They were composed of the original six people, Wang Fa, Che Wenwei, Li Wei, Li Nan, Xing Jiaqi, and Zhou Peng. There were seven fitters alone, but this furnace requires forgers and welders. !

Although the technical content is not high, it still requires people.

"Brother Liu, I still need two blacksmiths. They only need level three or above. The most important thing is to be united, obedient, and able to endure hardships!"

When Liu Guogang heard this, he nodded, "I'll go find him!"

"Brother Wang, do you know anyone who is a welder?"

Wang Fa thought for a moment and said, "There is someone. I'll go find him!"

After a while, Liu Guogang was followed by two tall, round-waisted men, not much shorter than him.

No wonder it is said that blacksmithing is a physical job, and the food is heavy and the work is heavy!

With this body, it would be wasted if I didn't wield a hammer.

"Gong Yang, these are the two brothers Guosheng Guohao, twins, both are level 4 blacksmiths, honest men!"

The two brothers have the same Chinese character face and big eyes. The difference is that the eldest Guosheng has a scar at the corner of his eye.

"Gong Yang. Let's do it with you!"

Guosheng spoke with enthusiasm in his heart. When Liu Guodong came to them, he just said, "Do you want to make money?"

The two brothers' family is more difficult than Liu Guodong's. Their family has a large population and they are all pregnant. They have no oil or water on weekdays, and it is difficult to swing a hammer.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, agreeing.

Someone came here, and Wang Fa led two thin men over from the other side. After some introduction, they were Liu Fuwei, a fourth-level welder in the third workshop, and Liu Fulin, a third-level welder.

The two of them were in the same compound as Wang Fa, so they knew everything!

"I don't have many rules, just do your job well and keep your mouth shut!"

"Hey, I understand!"

Yang Xiaotao looked at a few people and felt that it was necessary to explain the matter clearly, so he led a few people outside.

There were many people working around, and when they saw it, they all wanted to go over and see what was going on, but were stopped by Zhou Peng.

Yang Xiaotao told Liu Guogang and others, clearly explaining the pros and cons. Although he referred to the methods of carpenters and electricians, he did not dare to guarantee that there would be no problem.

After some thought, they decided to do it.

If you don’t work, you won’t be able to eat enough.

If you do it, it might be a way out.

When Yang Xiaotao saw this, he decided to do it.

In fact, Yang Xiaotao wanted to make a contract and have everyone sign and fingerprint it, which would be more formal.

But then I thought about it, they are all revolutionary workers. Once this contract is issued, doesn’t it become an employment relationship?

Maybe someone will die.

Therefore, Yang Xiaotao can only use this kind of friendship to bring a few people together. As for whether they will quit midway, no one can guarantee.

Fortunately, in this era, people take credibility very seriously. As long as they are not the beasts in the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao still has this little confidence.

After confirming joining the team, Yang Xiaotao prepared a plan.

Send several drawings to several people, each person is responsible for a part of the heating furnace, and everyone only needs to build the parts at hand.

This is Yang Xiaotao's heating furnace assembly line.

Of course, for the sake of uniformity, Yang Xiaotao has strict requirements on data.

Of course, not only the fitter processes parts, but also the requirements for Liu Guogang and the other two people. Not only must they meet the dimensional specifications, but the materials used must also be strictly controlled.

None of them are opportunistic people, and they know Yang Xiaotao's request and necessity.

After arranging the manpower, Yang Xiaotao first went to the office to find Wang Guodong.

After all, these three workshops still require his consent before he can borrow people and use space.

Arriving at the office, Yang Xiaotao explained his purpose, and Wang Guodong asked him a routine question.

After asking what he was doing, Wang Guodong didn't take it seriously. He thought it was Yang Xiaotao who was messing around. After all, he, the leader of the R\u0026D team, had to find something to do.

The people in his third workshop must support him no matter what.

With Wang Guodong's nod, Yang Xiaotao let go and prepared for a big fight.

At least this weekend, it will be installed for Yangjiazhuang Primary School.

Then he went to the factory director's office and found Xu Yuanshan, who was looking sad.

Recently, Secretary Liu went to the upper level for a meeting, and Factory Director Yang went down to the grassroots to conduct research. The entire factory was on his shoulders.

Busy!

Yang Xiaotao explained that he wanted to buy some scrap materials for research. Xu Yuanshan asked a few questions. After thinking about the stove Yang Xiaotao mentioned for a while, he felt that it was no different from his own, and he was just looking for something to do.

But it didn't dampen Yang Xiaotao's enthusiasm. When he is young, he needs to be given more opportunities.

With a wave of his hand, a purchase list appeared in Yang Xiaotao's hand.

During lunch, Yang Xiaotao led Li Wei and Li Nan to the warehouse to select materials.

After some selection, Yang Xiaotao and the other three placed the selected materials separately. Then Yang Xiaotao paid Director Lu the price of the scrap iron, and then took the things to the third workshop.

A few people took advantage of the lack of work to start processing parts and building components.

In the afternoon, after the workers got off work, Yang Xiaotao and others were still busy, especially the radiator. This thing had to be assembled and processed by welders. The two welders were also unambiguous. They kept the welding rods on hand without telling Xing Xingzi and watched from the sidelines. Yang Xiaotao instinctively turned his head away!

It wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening that everyone finished the work at hand. Yang Xiaotao looked at the completed parts. These were enough to assemble two stoves and three radiators.

This is still the first day. Once you become more proficient, it will only get faster.

Leather mats were also prepared. Under Yang Xiaotao's command, everyone learned to assemble the stove water tank. When they were finished, they put the finished products into the warehouse where the steel rolling mill was repaired, and then went home to rest.

When I got home, it was already ten o'clock.

Ran Qiuye read the book and waited for Yang Xiaotao. When he came back, he took out the food from the pot.

After Yang Xiaotao finished eating, he told Ran Qiuye what happened today, and planned to go back on Saturday to install the stove at the school so that the master and the others would be ready!

Ran Qiuye listened and kept it in mind.

In the following days, Yang Xiaotao and others worked overtime to produce heating stoves.

By Friday, half of the warehouse where broken machines were originally stored was occupied, and even the scrap materials in the warehouse had to be sorted twice to meet demand.

Although a few people were a little skeptical, if no one pretended to be this thing, it would be in vain.

Especially when Yang Xiaotao paid for scrap every time, he paid real money. If it weren't for the certificate issued by the factory, the warehouse director would doubt whether this guy was speculating!

Fortunately, several people had confidence in Yang Xiaotao and didn't say much. They still built parts according to Yang Xiaotao's requirements.

On Saturday, Yang Xiaotao and his brothers Zhou Kui borrowed a subway car and went to Yangjiazhuang with a set of heaters and four radiators.

Yang Xiaotao brought two bags of briquettes, and the three of them arrived at Yangjiazhuang.

After having a meal at home at noon, Yang Xiaotao led the two brothers to install the heater.

Mr. Yang was very concerned about school affairs. He heard that it was a new type of stove that would save children from the cold, so he immediately led the people in the village to help.

Yang Xiaotao assembled it himself, instructing Zhou Kui on how to choose the position, how to fix the lower tube, and how to drill holes...

Considering that the classroom is too big, Yang Xiaotao installed a radiator in each room and used two iron pipes to go around the room to increase the heat.

In order to facilitate control, Yang Xiaotao added a switch in each room, which can be turned off when not in use.

It took the four classrooms a long time to finally install them, and Yang Xiaotao taught the villagers how to use the stove, how to add water, and how to exhaust the gas.

Mr. Yang personally lit the stove and put the briquettes on it. He didn't go home to sleep and just watched in the classroom.

In fact, I just want to try to see if this heating stove really works as Yang Xiaotao said.

Yang Xiaotao understands Mr. Yang's feelings. As people get older, they become more serious about doing things. This feeling has never left him since he became the principal.

Opening a window with his own hands, Yang Xiaotao warned not to close the window. Although there were a lot of air leaks in the school, it was better to be prepared.

Mr. Yang also asked, and Yang Xiaotao told him what carbon monoxide poisoning was, which was an invisible presence that killed people.

For the sake of the children, Mr. Yang remembered this matter firmly. Even if it snowed heavily, he had to open a window for me.

At night, Ran Qiuye cooked a meal at home. After dinner, the Zhou Kui brothers followed Yang Dazhuang to the brigade headquarters to spend the night. It was the first time for the two brothers to come to Yangjiazhuang. There were new things everywhere. Look left and right, especially when they entered the brigade headquarters. Inside, I looked at the granaries piled up one after another with envy.

It would be great if their family had so much food.
